I am in the midst of a crazy busy week. Goes with my territory. Nothing ever grades itself. Always something. But we have to find time to chill out. In that spirit, cheers!
I added a title for you, Don. You can change it if you like. Good luck with all that paper grading. You need some good music for that.

The title change is jammin’. Works just fine. Something tells me that I’ll need to visit my optometrist by the end of the week.

“Where is the bartender?” I’m right here. Since it’s Cinco De Mayo, I’m sharing a Cinco de Mayo Margarita Fishbowl from Tipsy Bartender.

The bar/cafe is open!
Feliz Cinco De Mayo.
And a nice way to cap off the day…high nutritional value as well. Always a plus. 🙂
Glad to nourish people as I get them to mellow out.
Today is the Revenge of the Sixth, so here are a couple of Star Wars drinks for the occasion.

May the Force be with you.
And with you, too.
On that note, I’m continuing with the Star Wars theme by sharing two drinks for planets from the original trilogy)

Cabin Girl asked for a “marmot-tini.” Unfortunately, there is no drink with that name. The closest I can find is Woodchuck Hard Cider.

Need to wake up and we have a reggae theme. Hmmm.

Yesterday was the last day of Jazz Fest 2019. Professor Longhair closed it out before he passed, then the honor was passed along to The Neville Brothers. Trombone Shorty is the man now. Here he is with Santana.

They are all in fine form. Carlos Santana’s still got it.
Word.
We shot right past 100 and now have 101 subscribers.
Way better than dalmatians!
I am encouraged that we have new members named Tacitus and Tolstoy.
Nice. I think we once had a Cicero at the old frogpond many years ago. Someone should use Marcus Aurelius (I like Stoics).
Yeah, Cicero moved to Dubai…I believe you can follow his latest footwear choices on Instagram. 🙂
We need some marmot-tinis….Today feels like it should be Wednesday!
I get the feeling this meme will be very appropriate tomorrow:

I searched for “marmot-tini” and found out that it was one letter off from the scientific name for the ground that contains all the ground squirrels, Marmotini. That’s something that I, a biologist, didn’t already know. Thanks for adding to my knowledge in my specialty.

I’m concerned that drinking a Marmot-tini might give me the plague.

Holy moly, I’m here!! Took several minutes to remember there’s a space in my user name, and then to guess the 10-year-old password.
Looks amazing, Martin! Like going from a hole-in-the-wall to a 4-star. Many congratulations, and looking forward to the years ahead!
Welcome to the Pond! I hope you had a pleasant voyage getting here.
Hey. User question. What’s the time limit on editing comments here? Or, if it’s not a time limit, what’s the trigger that eventually disables further comment editing (with the red notice that says something like ‘This comment may no longer be edited.’)?
(Is this the right place to ask this kind of question?)
Good question. I don’t know the answer. I will ask.
By popular demand, we’ve added a Recent Articles feature at the top.
Let’s kick it up a notch.

No self-consciousness in that 1970’s era British Expeditionary Force humor.
Big fan of this genre.

And here’s the real thing, including the China Doll that she does not include.
